It was my understanding that the speedometer has nothing to do with the
transmission being OD or not. I think the speedo gear is driven off the
trans output shaft, at least with the J type OD. The OD is just like
another gear. I did not change my speedometer when I put in the OD and it
works fine. If the rear end gearing is changed, that is another story.
